I also support keeping the PID files. It can be responsibility of the application to save its own PID or the wrapping start/stop script. The latter will take care of cleaning up after himself. BTW, I applaud the idea of having a c&c channel for the enforcer. I was about to write a small change to ods-control to be able to start or stop the enforcer. The reason will come in a different email. cheers, > Andy > _______________________________________________ > Opendnssec-user mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.opendnssec.org/mailman/listinfo/opendnssec-user -- Sebastian Castro DNS Specialist .nz Registry Services (New Zealand Domain Name Registry Limited) desk: +64 4 495 2337 mobile: +64 21 400535 _______________________________________________ Opendnssec-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opendnssec.org/mailman/listinfo/opendnssec-user
